It's just a typical "Dems in Disarray" Politico hit piece. There is really nothing to parry because the cards are already on the table: pass a clean debt ceiling as was done for tons of prior administrations, and come to the table separately for budget negotiations.
I don't see what you do. There is no need for any other plan. We all know that Republicans are just virtue signaling, which they have to do since they have no real virtue, and will drop their pretend virtue and vote for a clean bill before we default, just like they do every time. They are the party of big business and nothing is worse for business than blowing up the economy. The Democrats merely have to wait them out. Just like every other time they try to hold the economy hostage to publicize their temper tantrums.
Having a fit President would also mean having someone that would stand up and oppose the Republicans. Directly oppose, as in ignore the debt ceiling. Giving the order to do so. They would also give a public address and explain how it is unconstitutional and that they would be following the letter of the most recent law passed by Congress. The budget they squeaked through last year. They would vow that so long as they were President America would pay its debts.
Why show your hand too soon as the executive, especially when there are middling voters that are worried about overreach (and this derailing the narrative that Republicans are the problem)? Let Republicans dig their own grave before you have to take those more extreme steps.
Yeah, that made all the difference for Obama...
Where is this idea that Obama could win the public to his side through speeches or charisma or whatever coming from?
Man you spout a lot of republican talking points for someone that hates them so much. I remember Obama got a lot of shit for not talking to the media enough in some X way. It's bad faith BS.
I don't mind criticism of Biden, but the Democratic circular firing squad is stupid as shit. What policy do you think you'd get if anyone else was president right now that Biden hasn't gotten? I don't think any of the other 20 people that ran against him would've gotten half of what he has gotten out of this congress.
This may still happen, no one is going to play that card until they absolutely have to.
When it is basically horseshit from Tucker's mouth, yeah. You aren't criticizing his policy you are spouting the right's bullet points against him. He made the GOP look like dumbfucks in the state of the union like 3 months ago, but here you are talking about how he has to be coddled, just like fox news.
But the question is, who then? Not Harris. Bernie been rejected twice. While Mayor Pete is likely a future POTUS, the MAGAtards won’t put up with a gay guy. Biden needs to flush this orange filth before normalcy can resume.
Name someone else on the Dem side that's "up and coming" and most importantly can keep another Republican presidency from becoming our next reality.
